Mikumi Safari - beautifull, long travel
Mikumi park is beautiful. Just from the road we saw impalas, giraffes, monkeys, tumbas (pig from cartoon). There are many elephants also. We were lucky and was lion family - 4 adults and 2 babies, just 20 meters from us !!! We also saw crocodiles and hippos, but hippos were in the water and crocodiles just lie... We also saw leopard, just for moment crossing the road, but very close to us. We saw some zebras, buffalo, and wild beasts. No so big group but small ones. next to road we also saw vultures. REALLY BEAUTIFUL.
We were there from Dar es Salaam. just for two days. Apartment for night was in very good level.
Negative was VERY long travel to and from Mikumi (from Dar es Salaam). It was 7 to go to and 9 hours back ! Our driver did not know English very well, so it was not possible to talk with him about country and so on... And I like this.

Very serious tour operator, always on time, never bad surprises, exactly as described before buying.
We have been warmly welcome, our expectations have been heard. Then two precise programs have been proposed to us and we just had to choose. The prices are correct.
Then all was great : the safari in mikumi (we saw a lot of animals!), then the hiking in another National Park and the Waterfalls! The owner, the drivers, the guides were very nice and helpful and the organization perfect!
We warmly recommand Hello Tanzania and thank them a lot.

It was an interesting experience.
The safari trip was really interesting. The bus driver was very nice, he picked up us on time and brought us coffee and snacks. The tour guide who took us to safari was nice too. He tried his best to take us to see as many animals as he could on that day. The only thing I would suggest the company to do was, I wish the company could allow us to pay by a credit card; it was troublesome to find a bank/ ATM if you don't stay in a hotel in downtown. Generally, it was a good experience. I recommend you to travel with Tanzania Mwangaze safari.

Our decision was best to select a local company and specially Hello Tanzania.
Even this was my second trip to Tanzania, I prefer to work with a local company and I see now how I was right for this decision. Mwajabu Sultan from Hello Tanzania was so much helpful and she did her best which was far better than I expected. I highly suggest to use their services and leave yourself at their hands for a good Tanzania experience.

What you really like!
With Hello Tanzania you can really organize the trip that you would like to do. The owner is ready to make changes to your program and meet your expectations. It was nice to find such kind of flexibility. We wanted to see the migration and therefore we drove up to Mara river, nearby Kenia border. But we did not want to miss the main sites at Serengeti and Ngorongoro and all of that spending only 5 nights over there. The safari was truly intensive and we have found in the driver the same friendly approach of the owner in Dar. The driver was also very expert of the parks and their wildlife making our trip pleasant and rich in information about animals and their habitat.

perfect organization
I texted them for a visit in Gombe NP and immediately got an answer. They organized me a day trip for the next day, connected me to a very nice guide, and even provided me vegetarian food on request. The guide then picked me up early in the morning from Kigoma. We saw a lot of chimpanzees and other monkeys and the guide could give me a lot of information about them. I could then spend the rest of the day on the beautiful beach at Gombe NP.
To sum up, it was an amazing day with perfect organization.
The only minor disadvantage was the prize. Although, they were adapting it to my low travel budget, I found it still a little bit expensive. However, the good thing was, that everything was already included (breakfast, lunch, boat cost, entrance fees, guide and pickup from hotel)

Lacked detailed communication but was a good trip.
We booked a 1 day trip to Selous from Zanzibar.
- Ask for discount right away. This tour was more expensive than others.
- Communication was prompt but lacked details about the trip. I like to know details about what happens before and during safari. Especially because I had children with us.
Our driver was prompt and professional (from One Africa). He took us to the airport cafe Johazi where we had breakfast (coffee and croissant) as we waited for our other members. They then presented us with the ticket and there were flights of 13 people per flight going to Selous. The 8hrs start when you land in Selous. Bathrooms are available at the airport. While on safari there are two stops planned. 1 for coffee and 1 for lunch. Bathrooms are going behind the bushes. There is one port o potty at lunch. Guides have waters and soda in each Jeep. We saw many animals but no lion. Apparently lions are easier to see at Mikumi.
Overall the tour I booked was fun and smooth but I wonder if I could have booked the same tour through someone with more details about the tour. Then I would have felt more at ease about what to expect.

A little misleading, not fully upfront about pricing or format of your.
Overall, the tour itself is fantastic. The guide was great, and the driver is very polite. He did stop quite a few times for personal errands, but otherwise was great. Safari needs to be paid in cash, which I was unaware of during booking, so make sure you have plenty of cash! Also, it is not a group tour, as described. It is an individual service, so be aware if traveling alone!

Great Mikumi and Udzungwa tour!
My husband and I opted for a 4-day/ 3-night tour and had a great time. From the time we were picked up in Dar-es-Salaam to when we were dropped back, it was a really smooth experience except for one hiccup. We were told a few days before the trip that the originally planned stay Camp Bastian was overbooked and they would put us up in a different hotel. This hotel unfortunately did not have the same facilities as the other one (bar, pool, etc.) and we still had to go to Camp Bastian for only the meals which was a bit tiresome. The safari and the hike up to Udzungwa falls were however, amazing. Truly unforgettable experiences. Madame Sultan, all our guides, the hotel staff and really everyone we met during our holiday were friendly and helpful. Tanzania is a beautiful country and we can't wait to go back!
